★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Walt Mann · Feb 2026

$200 later and I'm tossing some Steak and cheese crunch rolls in my toaster oven because the food i got was inedible. Didn't want to cause a scene because I was on a "nice night out" with my gf. Will never come back here but hey the cake was good. Just look at my medium rare steak and zoom in on that blubber. The lobster was overcooked and dry. Service was fine.

We had a great experience at The Boatyard Grill!!! We did not make a reservation and we were quickly seated. The server was kind and attentive. She came just enough times to make sure we were okay. We ordered the Spicy Tuna Roll, and made a combination of the Maker's Mark Sirloin and the Campfire Ribeye dish. The Ribeye was cooked to perfection. The portion sizes were more than enought to feed my husband and I. The prices were affordable for the meal that was served. We enjoyed our trip and would definitely come back, if we are ever in town again.

Would recommend incorporating a stop here into your plans to visit the area. The food was excellent, atmosphere was great with a beautiful view of the water, and the service was also exceptional. Our waiter, Mark F. was courteous and professional and did a fantastic job!

Had a really nice dinner here. The food is pretty good and the portions are generous. Service staff are extremely helpful and upbeat. Would recommend to anyone in the area. In particular we enjoyed the cookie dessert.

It was just amazingly amazing! We absolutely loved our experience here. We ordered the Dad’s Royal BBQ Platter, and it was incredible—hands down the most flavorful chicken I’ve ever had. The pork ribs were mouthwatering, and even the salad was delicious. That platter was an easy 10/10! We also tried the Lobster & Shrimp Risotto, recommended by the wonderful lady who served us. Her suggestions were spot on—the dish was packed with lobster and shrimp and cooked to perfection. I was unsure about which beer to choose, and she kindly brought me two types in small tasting cups to help me decide. Her service was exceptional and genuinely made our experience even better. The ambiance was vibrant and lively—the place was full, and everyone looked like they were having a great time. Highly recom
